I'm so excited it's silly! I just have a feeling this is going to be a once in a lifetime performance from him. :)
We've jacked the Adam thread and we're talking about Raul!

Hehe, everyone knows that that is the "Adam/Anthony/Raul Love Thread Pt 6", lol.
Stay in your own thread. (Smiley is sticking his tongue out at you)

*runs to catch up with Adam Thread, which is already farther than poor Raul by 4 threads and 9 pages*
I like this thread more, but it doesn't have the benefit of the crazy off-topicness that the Adam thread does.
Could that be because those that lurk in the Raúl thread are more obsessed??? That would be my excuse!
Just to show off my new avatar.
Because it's awesome.
It is!
Random: I started to babble about Raul at dinner in Bennigans.
I like my avatar!
I have never, ever wanted to marry Raul Esparza more than at right this moment.
Too bad- *shuts mouth*
pretty eyes!
*drool*

LOL! Elphie, as much as I love Raul Esparza, your avatar is just a smidge bit scary! But, in a good way!
Hehe, Elphie, I sort of want to marry him every time I see him. Alas.
I was so excited that your avatar was his eyes so I had an excuse to quote that article yesterday.
That article sparked quite a conversation!
It was a good conversation!
Sometimes I listen to him sing and I just gasp because it's so...indescribably perfect. And then I just want to throw myself at him and ask him to marry me.
...I'm sure that would go over well. Especially now that I am legal.
I know... and I promised the people in the chat that I wasn't going to threadjack to talk about Raul. Oops.
The rest of the article probably could've sparked a more interesting one, given what we ended up talking about.
Ack, I can already see what a stupid fangirl I'm going to come across as in Cincinnati. I wish I knew someone else that was going that day so I wouldn't feel so weird.

ss, could you post that quote about his eyes again? I meant to copy it last night, but the conversation progressed so quickly after that, so I lost track of it.

This thread was at the top of the OT board, so I thought I'd stop in. (Anything's better than actually doing some schoolwork!) I admit, I am severely lacking in culture and am familiar with Raul pretty much from listening to ttB and, of course, watching the infamous online clips of Hair :), but, just from the above, I think he's great. Talented, passionate about what he does, not hard to look at, can dance without looking like an idiot...
And this thread's only on page 14! So I thought I'd contribute.
"The face is beautiful, but it is not perfect, and so he can make it infinitely malleable. Esparza has a high forehead and distinguished nose and huge green eyes that can bulge with manic intensity or reflect inner wounds or transmit a tenderness that makes someone watching want to be involved with him. He is eloquent and passionate, a relentless researcher of his roles and nearly naked emotionally."

It was a really good read overall, especially the paragraphs before and after that one. The interviewer obviously loves him.
SS~ What day are you going to Company? I'll go with you if you can figure out a way to get me there and find me a place to stay. :-P

Sweetsiren, I read the article. Wow, I think I have another addition to my list of Actors With Whom I Am Hopelessly Obsessed, In Love, And/Or Infatuated. Just what I need!

Welcome to the club! *hands Zyla membership card* It's a lifetime guarantee!
I'm seeing it on April 1st, 9:00 show. If anyone needed a place to stay, my aunt and uncle are willing to host another person, but I'm no help at all with transportation.
